Definitions Product data applies under the following conditions: Three hours storage at the expected operating temperature followed by 30 minutes warm-up, unless otherwise stated Specified environmental conditions met Recommended calibration interval adhered to All internal automatic adjustments performed, if applicable Specifications with limits Describe warranted product performance by means of a range of values for the specified parameter. These specifications are marked with limiting symbols such as <,, >,, ±, or descriptions such as maximum and minimum. Specifications in normal print refer to parameters where compliance is ensured by the design or derived from the measurement of related parameters. Specifications in bold print are 100 % tested. Test limits have been narrowed by guard bands to take into account measurement uncertainties, drift and aging, if applicable. Specifications without limits Describe warranted product performance by means of a representative value for the specified parameter. Limits are omitted whenever they are not relevant for the specification (e.g. dimensional data). Typical values (typ.) Represent the population mean for the given parameter, derived from the design and/or production testing. Typical values are not warranted by Rohde & Schwarz. Limits of uncertainty Expanded uncertainties with a coverage factor of 2, calculated from the test assembly specifications and the modeled behavior of the sensor, including environmental conditions, aging, wear and tear, if applicable. The given values represent limits of uncertainty that are met by the Rohde & Schwarz instrument after calibration at a production or service site. Limits of uncertainty (in italics) are defined in EN 60359 and have been determined in line with the rules of the Guide to the Expression of Uncertainty in Measurement (GUM).

Footnotes 1 Specifications apply to timeslots/gates with a duration of 12.5 % referenced to the signal period (duty cycle 1:8). For other waveforms, the following equation applies: lower measurement limit = lower measurement limit for continuous average mode / (duty cycle). 2 With a resolution of 256 pixels. 3 Specifications apply to the default transition setting of 0 db. The transition regions can be shifted by as much as 20 db using an adequate offset. 4 Time span prior to triggering, where the trigger signal must be entirely below the threshold level in the case of a positive slope and vice versa in the case of a negative slope. 5 Specifications expressed as an expanded uncertainty with a confidence level of 95 % (two standard deviations). For calculating zero offsets at higher confidence levels, use the properties of the normal distribution (e.g. 99.7 % confidence level for three standard deviations). 6 Within one hour after zeroing, permissible temperature change ±1 C, following a two-hour warm-up of the power sensor. 7 Two standard deviations at 10.24 s integration time in continuous average mode, with aperture time set to default value. The integration time is defined as the total time used for signal acquisition, i.e. the product of twice the aperture time and the averaging number. Multiplying the noise specifications by (10.24 s/integration time) yields the noise contribution at other integration times. Using a von Hann window function increases noise by a factor of 1.22. 8 Expanded uncertainty (k = 2) for absolute power measurements on CW signals with automatic path selection and the default transition setting of 0 db. Specifications include calibration uncertainty, linearity and temperature effect. Zero offset, zero drift and measurement noise must additionally be taken into account when measuring low powers. As a rule of thumb, the contribution of zero offset can be neglected for power levels above 40 dbm. The contribution of measurement noise depends on power and integration time and can be neglected below 0.01 db. Example: The uncertainty of a power measurement at 3.2 nw ( 55 dbm) and 1.9 GHz is to be determined for an R&S NRP8S. The ambient temperature is +29 ºC and the averaging number is set to 32 in the continuous average mode with an aperture time of 20 ms. Since path 1 is used for the measurement, the typical absolute uncertainty due to zero offset is 28 pw (typical) after external zeroing, which corresponds to a relative measurement uncertainty of 3.2 nw + 28 pw 10 lg db = 0.038 db. 3.2 nw Using the formula in footnote 7, the absolute noise contribution of path 1 is typically 20 pw (10.24 s/(32 2 0.02 s)) = 56.6 pw, which corresponds to a relative measurement uncertainty of 3.2 nw + 56.6 pw 10 lg db = 0.076 db. 3.2 nw Combined with the uncertainty of 0.088 db for absolute power measurements under the given conditions, the total expanded uncertainty is 0.038 2 +0.076 2 +0.088 2 db = 0.122 db. The contribution of zero drift has been neglected in this case. It must be treated like zero offset if it is relevant for total uncertainty. 9 Expanded uncertainty (k = 2) for relative power measurements on CW signals of the same frequency with automatic path selection and a default transition setting of 0 db. For reading the measurement uncertainty diagrams of universal, average and level control sensors, see the Appendix. Specifications include calibration uncertainty (only if different paths are affected), linearity and temperature effect. Zero offset, zero drift and measurement noise must additionally be taken into account when measuring low powers. As a rule of thumb, the contribution of zero offset can be neglected for power levels above 40 dbm. The contribution of measurement noise depends on power and integration time and can be neglected below 0.01 db. Example: The uncertainty of a power step from 0.5 mw ( 3 dbm) to 10 nw ( 50 dbm) at 5.4 GHz is to be determined for an R&S NRP8S. The ambient temperature is +20 ºC and the averaging number is set to 16 for both measurements in the continuous average mode with an aperture time of 20 ms. For the calculation of total uncertainty, the relative contribution of noise, zero offset and zero drift must be taken into account for both measurements. In this example, all contributions at 3 dbm and the effect of zero drift at 50 dbm have been neglected. Since path 1 is used for the 50 dbm measurement, the typical absolute uncertainty due to zero offset is 28 pw after external zeroing, which corresponds to a relative measurement uncertainty of 10 nw + 28 pw 10 lg 10 nw db = 0.012 db. Using the formula in footnote 7, the absolute noise contribution of path 1 is typically 20 pw (10.24 s/(16 2 0.02 s)) = 80 pw, which corresponds to a relative measurement uncertainty of 10 nw + 80 pw 10 lg 10 nw db = 0.035 db. Combined with the uncertainty of 0.050 db for relative power measurements under the given conditions, the total expanded uncertainty is 0.012 2 +0.035 2 +0.050 2 db = 0.062 db. 10 Gamma correction activated. 11 Preferably used with determined modulation when the aperture time cannot be matched to the modulation period. Compared to a uniform window, measurement noise is about 22 % higher. 12 For measuring the power of periodic bursts based on an average power measurement. 13 To increase measurement speed, the power sensor can be operated in buffered mode. In this mode, measurement results are stored in a buffer of user-definable size and then output as a block of data when the buffer is full. To enhance measurement speed even further, the sensor can be set to record the entire series of measurements when triggered by a single event. In this case, the power sensor automatically starts a new measurement as soon as it has completed the previous one. 14 For moving mode the maximum burst width of a single burst is 8 s. For repeat mode the mean burst length is limited to 8 s/averaging number. 20 Rohde & Schwarz R&S NRP Power Sensor Family
15 This parameter enables power measurements on modulated bursts. The parameter must be longer in duration than modulation-induced power drops within the burst. 16 To exclude unwanted portions of the signal from the measurement result. 17 Specifications are valid for repeat mode, extending from the beginning to the end of all transfers. The actual values depend on the host system, therefore typical values are specified. They have been measured with a USB connection including one USB hub using the USBTMC protocol and an Ethernet network including one PoE switch using the HiSLIP protocol. Measurement times under remote control of the R&S NRP2 base unit via IEC/IEEE bus are approximately 2.5 ms longer, extending from the start of the measurement up to when the measurement result has been supplied to the output buffer of the R&S NRP2. 18 Measurement error referenced to a CW signal of equal power and frequency. Specifications apply up to +20 dbm for automatic path selection or within a subrange to the maximum level of the subrange minus 3 db. 19 Change of the reflection coefficient (error vector magnitude) referenced to 0 dbm. 20 Expanded uncertainty (k = 2) for absolute power measurements on CW signals at the calibration level within a temperature range from +20 C to +25 C and at the calibration frequencies. Specifications include zero offset and measurement noise (up to a 2σ value of 0.004 db). The calibration level is 20 dbm for path 1 and 0 dbm for paths 2 and 3. 21 The operating temperature range defines the span of ambient temperature in which the instrument complies with specifications. In the permissible temperature range, the instrument is still functioning but compliance with specifications is not warranted. 22 To operate the R&S NRP33SN-V at an air pressure below 795 hpa the sensor has to be mounted onto a temperature-controlled baseplate. In this case the temperature of the baseplate is regarded as the ambient temperature of the sensor. 23 Excluding defects caused by incorrect operation or handling and force majeure. Wear-and-tear parts are not included. Rohde & Schwarz R&S NRP Power Sensor Family 21
